Modular Field Trip Ep. 1 - Tidal Ambience with Mutable Instruments Rings, & Moog Mother 32

Published on Apr 3, 2017 ann annie

"Everything you are hearing and seeing was recorded in real time!
Took my station wagon Wilma (Wilma Wagon) out to the beach today for some nice ambient patching. This will be the start of a new series, each episode with a new natural wonder, each with a new patch and each episode featuring Wilma. Enjoy!

This Patch’s Secrets:
***Power was graciously received from Wilma Wagon’s battery and a power inverter. Audio was recorded with a Scarlett 2i2, and some DI boxes.
// Key Pings: Moog Mother 32
LFO Rate is randomly controlled by its own assignable output
Sequencer is randomly reset at random intervals also from its assignable output.

// Drone: Rings
Rings is receiving Mother 32’s KB output for the v/o
Intellijel Dixie II in LFO mode is controlling Ring’s Structure CV using the sine wave output
Ring’s is being strummed by Mother 32’s LFO Square Wave
Brightness is controlled by Mother 32’s VCO Pulse Wave
The triangle wave output from Dixie ii attenuated by Triatt is controlling the Position CV.
Mother 32’s triangle wave is attenuated then sent into Rings frequency CV for a very small amount of vibrato.

// Effects
The Mother 32’s output is being fed into a Boss ME-50 which supplies heavy amounts of reverb and delay. It is also run through the JHS Alpine and then into a second delay, the MXR Carbon Copy.

Rings output is being sent though into Ocean Verb set in Shimmer mode. The mix is 75% Wet output.

Faintly in the background is the natural audio captured by the camera’s mic. This is unaffected."

DSI PRO 2 CV INPUT TUTORIAL ~ Featuring the Korg SQ-1 sequencer

Published on Apr 3, 2017 once upon a synth

"This is a tutorial demonstrating how to use the control voltage (CV) inputs on the back of the Dave Smith Instruments Pro 2 synthesizer. These inputs allow you to modulate Pro 2 parameters using external gear. In this case I'm using the Korg SQ-1 which is a small sequencer that can output CV signals. On the Pro 2 you simply pick the corresponding CV input in the modulation matrix as the source. You have 4 CV inputs available on the back and they use 1/8" jacks so it's nicely compatible with eurorack modulars for example."

Synthrotek VERB Now Available for Pre-Order

via Synthrotek

"This is a pre-order! All orders will ship this friday, April 7th!

The Synthrotek Verb is a reveb module like no other. This three PT2399 16 bit unit offers a warm tape saturated spring reverb like sound but with the added flair of the subtle modulation which truly makes it shine. The input gain knob adds the the functionality by dropping back the input amount to give cathedral like sounds when the mix is high. The modulation knob can be turned manually for pitch bends, but give it a slow LFO or envelope CV to emulate pitch bends that sound like a tape echo with a broken capstan. The mix knob is a very fast responding cross fader circuit which allows audio rate inputs for further FM like modulation. Add a subtle amount of reverb or crank the mix past 3 o’clock to knock the reverb signal into the rails.

Features:

CV in over MOD and MIX
Buffered Input and Output
CV In for the MIX is additive to the knob.
Very low signal DC offset at -0.073V
Trimmer to adjust input gain.

Future Sound of London DIGITANA SX-1 Flyer & "Ignition of the Sun" EMS SYNTHI A Release

You might recall FSOL is working with Digitana on the HALia, and the FSOL - DIGITANA SX-1. Here are a couple of flyers including some synth art via the FSOLdigital website.  The image below is the cover for "Ignition of the Sun", a release featuring the original EMS SYNTHI A.  Details on that release follow.

"Available on Compact Disc, MP3 (320kbps) and FLAC

Coming from the home of Future Sound of London and credited to their ‘producer’ Yage, Ignition of the sun is a deep and evolving journey through liquid spewing analogue sequences, warm saturated swampy sine waves. It calls back to a time from the early 70s with bands such as Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze.

All sounds were created and sequenced entirely on the EMS Synthi AKS, multitracked and mixed to 15ips 1/4 Revox tape. The EMS Synthi AKS was first introduced in 1971, one of the earliest Synthesisers available and as used by Radiophonic Workshop, Pink Floyd, Brian Eno.

TRACKLISTING:

01 – Ignition of the Sun
02 – Garden of Syn
03 – Pathway to I
04 – Rutt Etra
05 – Subterranean Hattusa
06 – Oblique Towers
07 – Disparity in Oscillations Ab
08 – Bridge Between Tal
09 – Rivers of Occasion
10 – Opalis Amar Xam
11 – Moons in Dissidence
12 – Liquid Light Voids
13 – Return Beyond the Inner Voice"

Moog Circuit Bending Challenge 2017 - Vola the Tape Four

Published on Apr 1, 2017 Vola Noisy Stuff

"This is the first part of my video for the Moog Circuit Bending Challenge 2017. This video is explains what the Tape Four is and shows what it can do.

The second part will focus on the concept and build and it will have the schematics and bill of material at the end of the video.

The Tape Four is inspired by the Beatles track Tomorrow Never Knows and the way it uses tape loops. The design takes inspiration from the old mixing consoles that the Beatles used at Abbey Road studios."

We hope you enjoy this live improvised analog synth jam we created while staying on the Eastern Shore of MD. The wildlife moved us to sing them a song while the sun set on the water. We hope it relaxes and inspires you.
